Let's get Tony Gonzalez so Aaron can throw to him

Let's get Tony Gonzalez in here.

He's still effective, he would make a match up nightmare given
the receivers we have as well. Aaron can rely on Tony as his
failsafe down the middle of the field.

We could trade Brohm, and a conditional pick and the Chiefs would
jump at it. Heck..they might even want to throw in Brody Croyle
or Thigpen back at us

I don't think we can get anything for Brohm. Let's not forget, he's officially our #3.

I still think Donald Lee is underrated by us Packers fans and Finley's developing fast. I don't think TE is a need. If anything, we need to utilize our TEs more like we did in '07. We ought to take our '08 playbook and throw it out the window, then go back to our '07 playbook, a playbook that kept our O on the field and let our D rest. It was also more aggressive, which I liked way more.

I agree. I hope McCarthy is going to use the 07 playbook more and
loosen the reins on Aaron and let him be aggressive.

I think the 08 playbook was to help a young QB, but they should be okay now to really challenge defense..

Ted Thompson would never trade for Tony Gonzales.

That is correct, since the Chiefs owner stated Tony isn't going anywhere...

But I would love to trade for Brian Waters off that line.. he wants out as well and Hunt basically hinted that they would move him..

Ted Thompson will not trade for any current NFL Player. He is going to go with the players he has selected in the draft. Finley will have a chance to showcase his talents this season.

Whoops.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

I agree about Finley. He has tons of potential and I think he'll be a pretty good TE in a year or two. Donald Lee will suffice till that point. I guess I'm one of the guys who underrates him.

Tony would make our passing game pretty feared, but still, he is 33 year olds. You have to be sure you can make a run at a championship if you give up something for a guy like that.

Brohm going there, I wouldn't mind that much. Thigpen deserves to start somewhere and Croyle would hardly be an upgrade over Flynn, I think.

The deal was done and KC's GM came back at the last minute and upted the price (draft pick) AFTER he had already agreed to the deal.

It's not TT's doing that this guys not already a Packer.

packerfanoutwest (1h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites

Zero2Cool (9h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

packerfanoutwest (23h) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break
